2003 Jeep Liberty (Sport and Sahara Editions)
With more standard features than the entry-level SE
and X editions, the Sport and Sahara editions of the
Jeep Wrangler provide plenty of comfort. Designed for
those people who enjoy the added convenience of interior
amenities, both the Sport and the Sahara excel when
it comes to off-road performance and offer a nice set
of road manners for less adventurous street driving.
For 2003, an all-new 42RLE four-speed automatic transmission
debuts on Jeep Wrangler. Offered on all models, this
smoother-shifting transmission provides better highway
fuel efficiency and quieter engine operation at highway
speeds compared to the previous three-speed automatic
transmission. Other improvements for 2003 see the Wrangler
equipped with a newly designed interior providing more
refinements and added safety to the ride.
Under the Hood
The Sport and Sahara editions have the same aggressive
motor. It is a 4.0-liter V6 with 190 horsepower at 4600rpm
and 235lb-ft of torque at 3200rpm. Jeep's Command-Trac
4WD system is standard, giving the Wrangler superior
traction control. In terms of stability, the Wrangler's
strong construction and steady suspension handle all
the bumps on and off the road.
Along with stability, safety is also comprehensively
addressed. Next generation dual front airbags, driver's
side constant force retractor, self-adjusting low-tension
three-point belts and height-adjustable shoulder belts
are all standard on the Sport and Sahara editions.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
New front seats on all Jeep Wranglers offer an additional
20 millimeters of rearward travel, allowing taller drivers
to sit a more comfortable distance from the steering
wheel. The Sport model comes with such standard features
as fog lights, tilt leather-wrapped steering wheel,
power steering, front and rear carpeting, mini floor
console and P215/75R15 all-terrain tires. The Sahara
adds more standards to the list, including air conditioning,
cruise control, full storage console, AM/FM/CD player
with upgraded sound system, automatic day/night rearview
mirror and more.
The standard soft top can be replaced with a hardtop
on either model. 4-wheel disc brakes or antilock brakes
are optional, as is an engine block heater. Of course,
Sport owners eyeing the features on the Sahara can generally
pick whatever they fancy and add it to their vehicles.
The adventurous nature of the Wrangler is standard
with any model. What the Sport and Sahara offer is an
extra measure of comfort for a pleasant ride.
